Super Bowl 2012

Do you celebrate the Super Bowl? I have to admit that I am not a huge football fan. Or a sports fan really at all. I'll go to the occasional baseball game (I LOVE Rockies Field because I was living there when it was first built) and football game for my alma mater (BYU) otherwise I'm not a huge sports fan. But my husband is. And he loves fantasy football. So we're having his teams and their families over for the bowl.

We kept it very simple last year. I will probably do something similar this year. What do you all do?

The colors are red, white and blue, for both teams! Keeps it super easy! Here are some images for inspiration!

Red, white and blue marshmallow pops

I found this on Pinterest. Instead of guacamole I'll make a 7-layer dip

Pomegranate Jello Salad anyone?

Red White and Blue desserts

Remember these from last year? Yum! I wanted to make these again but decided to branch out a bit. I didn't have to go very far from sandwiched ice cream with sprinkles and candies.

I found these on Pinterest and had to make my own. Do you love Pinterest as much as I do? My new Inspiration Board place to store and remember cool images and inspiration. Love it!!

You saw these S'more pops in an earlier post but I wanted to show them again because they are so tasty and easy to make! These were made with the gigantic campfire marshmallows. Have you seen those at your local store? They're pretty fun.

More sprinkled and mini m&m covered ice cream sandwiches on a stick!

Trifle in a jar.

What is your favorite red, white and blue dessert for Memorial Day or 4th of July?

Memorial Day 2011

Although it was rainy most of the time, we had a fun filled Memorial Day weekend anyhow. We celebrated with friends and family and ate way too much delicious food!

Here are a few snapshots from the weekend.

S'more Pops. Huge hit with the kids. And with the mom's :)
